In 34 patients with polyaddiction, 30 with hashishaddiction and 10 opiateaddiction and in 6 patients with chronic alcoholism the author studies the content of serum immunoglobulins of class A. M. G. The studies established that the content of IgA is increased in patients with polyaddiction, chronic alcoholism. An increase of IgA in the blood serum is marked in hashishaddiction, opiateaddiction and chronic alcoholism and its increase in opiateaddiction and polyaddiction.
